Avon – Rollover Crash Victim Identified

The victim of a rollover crash in Avon last Friday evening has now been identified.

A few minutes after 7:00 p.m. last Friday, a 2002 black Dodge Durango driven by 41-year-old Steven Oulette of Bristol was traveling on Waterville Road (Route 10) when it swerved off the road into a guardrail before falling down a steep embankment. Oulette was thrown off his vehicle in the crash and sustained fatal injuries. He was immediately transported to UConn Medical Center by emergency crews where he was pronounced dead. The incident is still being investigated by authorities. They are asking anyone who may have information about the crash to contact them as soon as possible.

Officials will continue to investigate single-vehicle accidents like this until they eliminate all possible causes. This is important because there have been cases in the past where product/vehicle defects have caused injuries to motorists. If negligence is discovered in any of these cases, injured parties can file for compensation/damages under appropriate circumstances.
